Thanks to all you guys for giving advice to newbie and to my old man for picking me up in on a trailer and putting up with my grumpy arse last night.
    Glad it wasn't anything serious

    carb was probably flooded, there are drain screws on the carb, learn where they are and always drain the carb if the bike dosent want to start.
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    Interesting...my old 93 250 bandit would run rough on anything LESS than 98 and I know of another bandit that was like that too.

    I've had the carbs cleaned and balanced since then, dunno if that would make a difference.
